Second chances

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the CCS characters

Love can't be real, unless you feel pain, jealousy, and joy. That's what Syaoran will feel when he push the one person he really wants. Can he do it by this Christmas? Or lose her?

It's been three years since the winter trip. It was both, the best trip and the worst for Sakura.

For one, she met someone new.

For second, she lost someone dearly.

Life wasn't treading her bad; in fact it was her best life yet.

After high school she fallows Tomoyo to the fashion institute. She soon became her privet model. Tomoyo became the best fashion designer. She and Eriol are both engage to one another.

Sakura and Justin became a lot closer after Syaoran left. Justin was there when she needed him. He was the one who heal her broken heart. He purpose to her and she did accept it, yet her heart feels empty.

Syaoran? Well he went back to China, not even trying to win Sakura back. Yet that's what some people thought. But in truth, he listen to Eriol, for once. When he arrived at Hong Kong, his mother put him to work, he was still in high school, yet he was force into a black and white suit and work. Now he has earned his company. He never had a girl friend, and that scare his mother that she asks Eriol if her son was… well, you know….but to her relief; he's not, just broken hearted. He was at one time engage, but he chases her away.

It was soon winter. The wedding of Tomoyo is being held at a winter land lodge. It was a Christmas wedding. Everything will be white. That's the color scheme. But the bride maids all have to wear light pink and the grooms wear their favorite color as their collar, why am I telling you this, this early? Because Tomoyo really wants you to know her theme for her wedding. In matter of fact, she wants to let the world know that she is getting married on Christmas day, to Eriol Hiragizawa. And her theme is winter wonder land.

December 8, 2006

"Sakura will you hurry it up."

"I'm coming." Said a 21 year old woman.

"Well make it fast I only get marry once." Said the other 21 year old woman.

"Tomoyo you not getting marry until the 25th of December. And may I add that it's the 8th!!"

"Sorry, but I want to get there before anyone so I can look over everything."

Sakura roll her eyes, "Tomoyo, it's a trip leading up to your wedding. Everything will be perfect."

"Speaking of perfect, when is your fiancé, Justin coming?"

Sakura blush, "he said that he will be busy, but will come later. Like few days before the wedding."

"Oh, what will he do that is taking him away?" Tomoyo ask

"He still works and can't take a month off like we do, but its very impartation."

"And you let him be, you truest him that much?"

"Yes I do Tomoyo, don't you with Eriol?"

"Yeah, because I love and know him."

"So, I love Justin and…

"But you don't know him that much like I do with Eriol."

"But I've known him for like 3 years, Tomoyo." Sakura fought back

"ok." Was all that Tomoyo Said

The two walk to a car that waited them. It drove them to an air port, from there; the two took a jet to the lodge, through it all no one talks.

Eriol walk out of his office building. He had a smile on his face. Soon I'll be married than have children!!!! YAY!!! Eriol at that point was jumping around like a girl.

"Dear lord, tell me that this is not a man."

Eriol stop jumping around and face the voice. He soon screams like a girl and runs to the him.

"OMG, Eriol let me go you freak!!!!!!" the man scream

"I can't Syaoran, it's been 3 years since the last I saw you."

"Then let me go so I won't have to kill you in the streets before you wed."

Eriol let go and took a step back, "wait, why you are in here when you said that you will met us at the lodge?"

"Will, I do have a company here." Eriol nodded his head. "So I thought of stopping by and checking up on the staff."

Eriol smirk, "oh really, the staff, not an old friend?"

"Shout the fuck up Eriol, anyways it 8pm, we are old enough to drink and there's a club that I'm dying to go."

Soon the two stop at a club called Jeudi (Thursday). The two got in with no problems.

Syaoran ran to bartender and got him self a drink…and eriol too. The two walk around. They found old friends to hang out with.

Soon it was midnight, and the boys all had fun. For Syaoran, it seem the best night.

"Yo this is the best night,' Syaoran raise his glass, "to eriol, the first one of us to get tied down." Everyone raise theirs and toasted.

Eriol look at Syaoran's glass and laughs, "yo dude, let me give you an advice, when you're making a toast, make sure you have something to drink after."

Syaoran stop and look at his glass. There was not even a drop of wine left. "Oh" was all he said causing everyone to laugh. He smile and got up to get another drink.

After he got the drink he turns around to find, yet again, an old friend, "Yo Justin, what are you doing here in the city?"

Justin turns around with girls hanging off of him. "Nothing man, what are you doing back after 3 years?"

"You know catching up on old times. So who are your friends." Syaoran said pointing to the girls.

"oh, this one is Kelly.' he pointed to his right. He move to his left, "and this one is Jen" Kelly had dirty blond hair, and she was wearing a black mini and a black bikini. Jen had black hair and was wearing a purple tight skin mini dress.

Kelly walks over to Syaoran and press her self against him, "hi, I'm Justin girlfriend nice to meet you."

Jen soon fallow Kelly, "we can have fun if you like?" she said playing with her hair.

Syaoran look at them with dirty faces. Eh, he down size since the last time I saw him.

Then Justin started to panic, "Um Syaoran, its not what it looks like. I still love Sak…"

"Um-

"And I would never do anything to hurt her and I would-

"Justin? Stop blabbing. Look you have fun and we'll talk soon."

"What?" Justin look at Syaoran confuse. "Wait isn't you mad at me. Or at lest want to kill me?"

Syaoran was the next person to look confuses, "what are you talking about? We just ran into each other and we do have plans for the night."

"yeah, but I thought that you will be mad at me because…' Wait could it be that Syaoran doesn't know that sakura and I are engage? This is good. I know that he was mad at her 3 years back. Hmm. I just have to watch out for him. Plus I have weeks to be free and have fun with other girls. 'I'm sorry, I just thought that maybe you will want one of the ladies."

Syaoran shook his head, "no you have all the fun, I'm only here for business." Syaoran walk away in to the crowed. Good, so that means he won't go to the wedding. "Justin when do you have to leave us?" said one of the girls, "I have to leave on the 15th."

"Aww, can't you lave later then the 15th?" said the other.

"Sure, I'll go the 23rd if you two show me the best of the best." Justin then chases the girls around the club.

Syaoran walk over to his friends and continue with the fun.

December 15, 2006

Sakura soon talk to Tomoyo, will soon after they got off the plane. She couldn't stay mad at Tomoyo for long, she is her best friend and she is getting married. Sakura knows that Tomoyo looks out for her. She too wonders about Justin. That night she try calling him but he never answer, will he hasn't called in much. All she knows is his job is swamp and crazy at the moment. Soon the other will arrive.

Tomoyo walk down the hallway humming. She walks over to sakura's room and knick. "Sakura, hurry, the boys will be here in 5 minutes."

Sakura open the door a sec. later. Tomoyo gave her a smile that made sakura blush, "aren't we in a rush?" Tomoyo said with a bigger smile.

"What, I haven't seen Justin in days."

"Same here but you're the one who looks cute."

"Oh shout it Tomoyo and let's go.' She grabs Tomoyo hands and drags her, "I want to give him a big kiss."

The girls made it down to the main floor. Their were two men at the desk. Tomoyo smile grow and a small, completely small blush grow.

Eriol turn around to find his fiancé.

Tomoyo ran up to him.

Sakura just stop dead on her tracks. The other man is not her fiancé but someone else…

Eriol open his arms to greet Tomoyo.

Syaoran was busy getting his keys for his room to notice someone staring at him.

He saw Eriol turn with a hug grin on his face.

He then saw Tomoyo run into his arms.

His eyes twitch, "why can't you greet like that." He shouted

Eriol stop kissing Tomoyo and look at him, "You want me to kiss you?"

Syaoran face turns red from both anger and embarrass, "No not like that, like in a calm way. Not screaming like a girl."

"So you don't like how I greet you?"

"Exactly!!" Syaoran throw his arms in the air.

"But I rally see you. I'm just too happy to see you. You like a ghost."

Syaoran just glare at him.

"Hi Syaoran, thanks for coming to the wedding." Tomoyo said with a smile

Syaoran scratch his head, "it was a pleasure." He said.

He soon turns to face the stairs. His breath was caught in his throat.

Syaoran took a breath in and walk over to sakura.

Tomoyo and eriol stayed watching the scene.

"I hope all ends well." Tomoyo said.

"Me too." Replay eriol.

"Hello Sakura."

Sakura couldn't breath. She looks back and forth. "Hi." She said.

The two stay completely quiet. It was an awkward silence.

Syaoran was the first one to break it. "Will then, I'll be going to my room now, since it's late."

Sakura was brought back to reality, "Oh yes, would you like me to show you your room?"

"No thank you I got it."

At that moment, they both stair into each other eyes.

"Will good night Syaoran, Ouch!"

Syaoran broke away from the stare, "right, good night everyone." He walks up the stairs.

Sakura look down at the stairs, she tilt her head. Eriol was rubbing his arm and Tomoyo look a little annoy.

"Hi Eriol."

"Hi Sakura, how are you?"

"I'm doing well. Have you heard from Justin?"

"Yes, he said that he is sorry, but he won't be able to come down until the 23rd. sorry."

"It's ok. Will, I'm off to bed. Goodnight, Tomoyo and Eriol."

"Goodnight." They both said.

Syaoran was at the door when he heard sakura speak. He really didn't want to listen, but his door wasn't letting him in. he soon heard Justin's name come up. He stops and walk nears the stairs.

"Yes, he said that he is sorry, but he won't be able to come down until the 23rd. sorry."

"It's ok. Will, I'm off to bed. Goodnight, Tomoyo and Eriol."

"Goodnight." They both said.

He then saw sakura coming up the stairs looking upset. He than ran to his door, which open with no problem, and close it before sakura notice. He drops his bags on his bed. He walks near his porch. He walks out to find a beautiful scene. He walks up to the railing.

"Wait I saw Justin few days back,

(Flash back)

After he got the drink he turns around to find, yet again, an old friend, "Yo Justin, what are you doing here in the city?"

Justin turns around with girls hanging off of him. "Nothing man, what are you doing back after 3 years?"

"You know catching up on old times. So who are your friends?" Syaoran said pointing to the girls.

"oh, this one is Kelly.' he pointed to his right. He move to his left, "and this one is Jen" Kelly had dirty blond hair, and she was wearing a black mini and a black bikini. Jen had black hair and was wearing a purple tight skin mini dress.

Kelly walks over to Syaoran and press her self against him, "hi, I'm Justin girlfriend nice to meet you."

Jen soon fallow Kelly, "we can have fun if you like?" she said playing with her hair.

Syaoran look at them with dirty faces. Eh, he down size since the last time I saw him.

Then Justin started to panic, "Um Syaoran, its not what it looks like. I still love Sak…"

"Um-

"And I would never do anything to hurt her and I would-

"Justin? Stop blabbing. Look you have fun and we'll talk soon."

"What?" Justin look at Syaoran confuse. "Wait isn't you mad at me. Or at lest want to kill me?"

Syaoran was the next person to look confuses, "what are you talking about? We just ran into each other and we do have plans for the night."

"Yeah, but I thought that you will be mad at me because…'I'm sorry, I just thought that maybe you will want one of the ladies."

Syaoran shook his head, "no you have all the fun, and I'm only here for business." Syaoran walk away.

(End of flash back)

Wait is he still with Sakura after 3 years. Wait if he is with her then. His open his eyes in shook, he try to tell me. That he was cheating on Sakura. I have to tell her. But how? Syaoran look up at the sky the moon was out and the stars shine bright. That's when he had a flash back, that's one big present that Santa clause won't give me, but an angle will give me trials.

Syaoran look around, is someone there, no reply. Syaoran look in front of him, "what was that?" he question the sky. The wind reply.

"This place is romantic."

Sakura look at Syaoran from her left. Her breath caught short when she heard him say, 'This place is romantic.'

She saw him walk in to his room and close the door. She just stares at his door. What is this feeling that I feel for him. Its feels different from Justin.

December 20, 2006

Syaoran couldn't take it. He had tried to talk to sakura for the past 5 days. She would just get up and walk away or had something impartation to do.

"Eriol, you have to help me."

Eriol look at him, "You need my help, YAY-

"Shout it, I just want answers and fast."

"Ok but could you let me finish?"

"No, just answer me this, what is sakura's relationship with Justin?"

"I can't tell you that she has to tell you." Eriol answer.

Syaoran kick the snow, "Damnit Eriol, it's not a big deal. I know that whole Japan knows their relationship; it's not that big of a deal. So tell me."

"Why not ask her?"

Syaoran was about to go crazy, "I did try, for the past 5 DAYS!! She just won't answer me.' Syaoran fell on his knees and beg Eriol, "Eriol please tell me you knew what's their relationship, please, i-i-'m b-bbegging you."

Eriol who was in competed shook, his best friend, a rich guy who can get what ever he wants is begging on his feet.

"Oh my, Syaoran get up. Find I will tell you, but please people are staring."

"Oh thank you."

The two walk to a privet place.

"Look Syaoran don't get mad or anything-

"Come on what is it?"

"They are engage."

Silence

Syaoran face was cover with his bangs.

"Syaoran?' Eriol wave his hand in front of him, "Syaoran are you ok, come on men, your scaring me! Syaoran?"

"That fucker! That Mother fucker."

"Wait what wrong?"

Syaoran look at Eriol, "You want to know what's wrong, and he is cheating on sakura with Kelly and jenny."

"Huh?"

"On the 8th, when we went to the club, I ran into him. He had this two ugly ass girls hanging off his arms. He tries to play cool with me because I didn't know about him and sakura."

Eriol put his hand over his month, "Oh my."

"Yea oh my I bet you that he has no important job and doesn't want to come over because he wants to sleep with more girls."

"That nasty basterd. He is so out the wedding." Eriol took out his phone.

"Wait." Syaoran reach over, "what are we going to tell sakura?"

"We? Syaoran what do you mean we. You're the one who knew about this."

"Well, you're the one who knew about the engagement."

"But you're the one who still loves her."

…

"Syaoran, you know I can't. She has to hear it from you, not me. I'm just going to tell him not to come."

"Hold on. It will be better if he comes. When I confront him, here in front of sakura."

"Then will you declare you undying love to her." Eriol said

Syaoran blush "yes" he hiss

Eriol smile. "Oh this is the best wedding/Christmas present ever." Eriol scream.

"Shout it." said a red Syaoran
